Where Did All the Folders Go?

[SOA_RRU]

OK here, but booooooored with everything. Still folding along....we're creeping up on that 50 billion points mark as a team! I think that's exciting, but I'm still waiting on that dividend check.

I'm never bored, I'm just never excited with anything i buy or do anymore (its an age thing / not giving a flying F*** anymore lol)

Regarding the Team pts, For what members we have we still manage to knock out some respectable numbers & because i wasn't bored but not excited in any way i bought another card tonight

 

[hmmblah]

lol, what card did you buy? Replacing your current card or folding on both?

 

[SOA_RRU]

RTX 5060 Ti 8GB (16GB wasted for f@h) It's replacing my old 2060 Super which is a parttime card anyway.

So the 5060 Ti will become my main card with the 4060 Ti as backup for when i've been on a long shift and need to top up the pts.

What kind of PPD are you seeing on the 5060 Ti?

What kind of PPD are you seeing on the 5060 Ti?

7.5 - 8.7million @ 83% power

Very nice, about double a 2080 Super!

Merry Christmas Team Redline

I've been folding on a 5060 ti (16 GB) but I increased the clock and haven't reduced the power at all. It's 180W...
How did you set up yours?

Because of the boost-points I've always thought I should maximize the clocks... Not reduce the power.

 

[SOA_RRU]

Standard clocks for me with power down to 83% (lowest it will go, 4060Ti will go down to 60%)

Works well enough for me, Less power = Less heat & cheaper bills with only a small impact on overall ppd.

Hey folks hope you're well? Long time lurker finally joined so please forgive the following info dump
This has been a trial for me as you'll see but wanted to give OC3D the support to try and stay in top 100 for a bit longer. My friend D-Tronics also followed suit with a gtx1050Ti in his work system (still going) and initially his rtx3060ti which I'll chase him up about.

Dedicated folding rig has a 5820K (locked 3.3Ghz) in a X99a-SLI Plus, CM 650W MWE Gold V3, clean Win10 install.
GPU 1) passive pcie power KalmX rtx3050-6GB, flat V/F curve at 1410Mhz, 0.75v which gets ~950K PPD.
GPU 2) Asus Dual miniV2 rtx3060ti at 1395Mhz, 0.75v which gets ~3M PPD
GPU 3) TitanV set to max 70c and 70% power (prioritise power, once at 70c it throttles to 1200Mhz at 0.718v for ~4M PPD.

Depending on WU power usage is 400W+/-30W which makes the PSU fan ramp up kinda loud so the Titan is only brought on rarely plus on light WU's it squeals like a pig with coil whine at 1335Mhz and 0.768v (not throttling) for only ~2.5M PPD.
As I type getting 600K, 2M, 2.1M respectively [sigh]

Best case with heavy work units ~430W and smidge over 8.5M PPD with all the tuning.... I look on at rtx5060ti-8G's with envy.
Sorry I won't be able to keep this up much longer as I'm unemployed and my electric averages 23p/Kwh* that means £2-£2.40/day day for nearly a year has me bankrupt (moved into concrete floor apartment 5 years ago still haven't bought carpet),
*(3hrs at 40p/Kwh, 3hrs at 17p/Kwh, standard rate 18hrs at 21p/Kwh)

I still feel lucky because July last year my average price jumped to 30p/Kwh so had to stop completely until I changed providers. considered throwing 4x Tesla P40's in to a spare Antec 902 but the PPD/£ sucks even if only doing it off-peak (17p/Kwh), will be falling back to only rtx3050 in a low power system at some point and break 1B.... eventually

Thanks for the support, but don't bankrupt yourself!!!
